About location

Fischen im Allgäu combines the intimacy of a rural settlement with an Alpine setting in a way that reflects its position in the Iller valley. The Iller runs through the Allgäu toward the Danube, while the surrounding foothills form part of the northern edge of the Bavarian Alps. Fischen belongs to Oberallgäu, a district shaped by dairy farming, grassland and traditional timber-built farmhouses with broad, pitched roofs. The parish church of St Verena is a focal point in the village, whose compact centre is set between open fields and wooded mountain slopes. It is a distinctly lived-in Allgäu community rather than a purpose-built resort.

Bavaria
Region Bavaria

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Country Germany

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
